In a new feature, Air Cargo Week says DHL is rolling out site upgrades that cut costs and carbon at the same time: LED lighting, on-site green energy, water-reuse systems, and re-engineered yard/traffic flows to speed trucks through gates and docks. The idea is to make facilities cheaper to run, more compliant on emissions, and measurably faster for shippers under tighter SLAs.
For flavour of what that looks like on the ground, DHL’s recent Halle logistics centre adds photovoltaics, high-efficiency LEDs, and DGNB-Gold sustainability standards—signposts of the wider program. And upstream, DHL is pairing ground upgrades with cleaner air ops, including SAF procurement in Japan as it pushes toward higher sustainable-fuel usage.
